THE TURKS REPULSED. Tk Omki Held Xante On at Tele. . tin Junction. Athens, May 8. A telegram just re oeired here says a great battle has been fought at Velestino', between a Turkish force of 8,000 and General Smolensky's brigade.. The dispatch states that the . repeated charges of the Turks were re pulsed with enormous losses. The headquarters staff of the Greek army at Pharsala has been completely changed. General Maoris and Colonels Saponulzakis, M astro pas . and An- toniades have resigned and started for Athens. ' . Battle Raged All Day. Athens, May S. The battle of Vel estino raged fiercely from sundown un til 10 o'clock this morning. The Greeks have been reinforced, the rein forcements arriving at a critical stage of the fight. General Smolensk! tele graphs that the Turks will be nnable to capture Pharsala because the Greek position is strong and the morale of the Greek troops completely restored. Why the Turkish Attack Bailed. London, May 8. The Chronicle's correspondent at Pharsala telegraphs: The Turks attacked Velestino Junc tion Tuesday night with' four squadrons of cavalry and a battery of horse ar tillery. The large force of Greeks beat the Turks off, but not before they had displaced half a dozen rails and cut the wires. The latter were repaired and on Wednesday the train service was resumed. Fighting was renewed Wednesday night, but without special results. : On 'Xbursday night, the Turks assembled in great force in the direction of Veles tino. The Turks made an attack before dawn, but were successfully repulsed. Three times in the course of the morn ing was the attack repeated, each time from a different direction, and each time the result was a -repulse. Ap parently it was intended that the at tacks should be simultaneous, but this plan failed, owing to lack of proper or ganization. The Turks, however, pushed the attack with the utmost de termination for six hours, and only abandoned the attempt to seize the junction about noon. The Greeks behaved well. The third brigade and artillery particularly dis tinguished themselves under General Smolenski. The Turkish losses were heavy. The Greek loss was much lighter. Colonel Janninosta, with the Eighth regiment, pursued the- Turks several miles. Full-grown and mature men, well armed, though without uniforms, are arriving here with every train. They are supplied with ammunition. The transport service is improving rapidly. Heliograph and night watohing signals have been established, covering the en tire territory occupied by the forces. An excellent spirit animates the men, who work hard from 5 in the morning until 7 in the evening, besides sleep ing on their arms at night. The Turks Claim It. Constantinople, May 8. The Turk ish government has issued the follow ing announcement: "Far from being repulsed at Velestino, the imperial troops continued their victorious march forward. " ' Another Retreat Probable. London, May 8. -The Times corre spondent at -Athens sayBi "The news from Thessaly is unfavorable. Fight ing at Velestino was resumed this morn ing. The Greek right repelled vigor ous cavalry charges, but their left was compelled to retire. It ig feared their position at Pharsala will be outflanked, thus compelling a retreat to Demokos. Turkey's Term of Peace. . - New York, May 8. A World special from Washington says: The terms of peaoe whioh Turkey has offered Greece have reached the Washington legation. They re as follows: ; The restoration of' the boundary fixed by the treaty of 1831, which gave to Turkey all of Thessaly, including its extensive seaooast; the evacuation by Greece of Prevesa and other points in the province of Epirus; the withdrawal of Greek troops from' Crete and the acceptance of the plan of autonomy offered the island by the porte, and the payment of a war indemnity large enough to cover the' expense of the mobilizing of the Turkish troops. Both Want to Fight. London, May 8. It is semi-offlcially stated that there is reason to believe that European intervention between Turkey and Greece in the present posi tion of affairs is regarded as wholly im practicable, both Greece, and Turkey having resolved to continue the war. The powers are thus obliged to stand aside until one of the combantants is finally defeated '" ' '" ' :' ' Americans Had the Advantag-a.; London, May 8. In the h6useot commons today the presidetnt of Uie board of trade, C. T, Ritchie, replying to Sir Charles Howard Vincent, con servative and free trader, said the gov ernment was not prepared to compel companies applying for new railway charters to buy their equipment in the United Kingdom. In the case of the Waterloo City railway, Mr. Eitchie added, twenty-two cars had been or dered in America, because out of seven English firms tendering bids for the worr, not one wag able to deliver the -stock in the time required by the rail road company. Aged Woman Tortured by Thieves. Sisterville, W. Vs.. May 8.-Last night Mrs. Shook, an aged lady living at Adonis, was tortured and robbed by a negro and white man, who forced an entrance into her home. The fiends brutally beat her bare feet with switch es, burned them with candles, and also burned the hair from her head and roasted one ear. The woman finally told where her money was hidden, and the robbers secured $500 and escaped. The woman will probably die. Cartersville, 111., May 8.

Chleags reemployed Prop to March to rub. unicago, Aiay 8. ine Kecord says: Another movement similar to that which General Coxey organised a few years ago, and which is designed to take an army of unemployed men on a long trip across the country, is being quietly organised, and it is said that in June it will "move," having its starting point in this city. it diners from tnat which was pro ductive of the famous "keep-off -the-grass" by-term, in that it does not hare the national capital as its objective' point, and it is not designed to ask, the national government for aid for any one. If the present plans are carried out, when the "army" reaches the end of its destination it will at once go to work as a co-operative commonwealth, and the leaders will attempt to prove that the working people can provide for themselves out of the abundance of the earth without dividing the products of their labor. . It is said that with the adjournment of the convention of the American Railway Union, which will meet in this city in June, the time will have arrived for the order to march, and it is further said ;that President E. V. Debs and other men prominent in rail road organizations are among the prime movers in the scheme. Utah is to be the haven of rest, and once there every man will be on an equal looting with his neighbor. There will be no city councils to do business with when pub lio improvements are needed and the people decide to make them. The people will do this themselves. It is said that figures have been gath ered which show that there are now 100,000 men and women out of employ ment in Chicago. It is not expected that anywhere, near this number will make the trip to Utah, but it is be lieved by men prominent in the move ment that the army will move with several thousand men, and that it will pick up more on the way. It is proposed to organize the co operative commonwealth along the same lines as those laid down by the social ists, the means of production and dis tribution are to . be the common, prop erty of the community, and may be used by any member thereof. Whether the proposition will be sub mitted to the convention of the railroad organization has not been decided, but it said that H is more than likely it will be. SPEED WAS TOO GREAT.: Reason Assigned by Jury for Portland . : Street-Car Accident. Portland, Or., May 8. The coroner's jury impaneled Wednesday to hold an inquest over the bodies of Catherine Baillie, Newton Hansen.W.W. Blanch ard and M. C. Benninger, who died from the effects of injuries received in the street-car accident on East Morrison street last Tuesday, rendered a verdict yesterday afternoon in whioh they found that the accident was mainly due to the high rate of speed traveled by oar No. 63 at the time of the accident. An opinion was also expressed in the' verdict that the forward axle of the front truck was broken at the reverse curve, where the car showed indica tions of having first left the rails. Muoh evidence was taken during the day from both persons on the car at the time, and from others familiar with mechanics and the track on East Mor rison street. ' . . . The majority of those on , the oar stated that it was traveling faster than is permitted by the city ordinances. One witness, Mr. Philip Flood, who stood on the front platform ; with the motorman, stated that the car was not going faster than was customary at that point, and that it was thoroughly un der the motorman's control until the curve was reached.

FISHERMEN DROWNED. Oae Canalaed la the Breakers Clatsop Spit. Astoria. Or.,. May - . The first drowning of the fishing season occurred about 8 o'clock this morning, when one of Seaborg's boats capsized in the breakers near Clatsop spit. In the boat were John Hendrickson and his boat puller, August Koshela. The wind was blowing heavily at the time, and when Hendrickson's boat overturned few men had their nets out. The boat nearest the capsized craft went to its assistance, and succeeded in rescuing tne Doatpuller, but Hendrickson sank, It is probable the body will never be re covered. The deceased was a Russian Finn, about 85 years old, and unmar ried. He had lived in this country eight years, and had a brother and sis ter living in Astoria. News was received here late this af ternoon of the finding of a body of an other fisherman. One of Kinney's boats drifted up on Long Beach, near Ocean Park. The net was fast to the boat. and tangled in the web was the body of the unfortunate man. His name was not learned. It is probable the boat puller was also lost. It is reported tonight that one of Booth's boats capsized this afternoon near Clatsop spit, and that both captain and boatpuller drowned. The report is evidently true, although neither the number of the boat nor the names of the men were given. The report was brought up by a fisherman, who had learned nothing more. -TOUGH ON AMERICANS. Alien Miners In Rossland May Hate to Become British Cltiaens. Rossland, B. C, May 8. The pro posed law as to alien miners having to declare intentions to become citizens before they can take out a miner's cer tificate is causing much talk here, and there are still hopes that it will not be come a law, although it has passed the legislature. Strong petitions against it are going up from all parts of British Columbia, the principal' argument be ing that without American energy the mining .wealth of the country would nofhave been discovered, and without it this wealth cannot be developed. Eighty-three Americans today applied for miner's licenses at a fee of 5 each per annum, some for one year, some for two, and some for three years. There are many prospectors from the Ameri can side who have previously taken Out licenses lor several years, and these, the new law, if it becomes a law, will not be able to touoh. There will prob ably be a rush of American miners at other points to get miners' certificates before the law is signed. THE GUTHRIE CALAMITY. FIto More Bodies Recovered From the Debris. Kansas City, May 8. A special to the Times from Guthrie, O. T., says: Five more bodies were recovered from the debris left by Wednesday's storm in West Guthrie. The bodies of George Owen and Mrs. Charles Ruffins were found on the west bank of the river. The bodies of Henry Simmons and Mrs. Watson and child were found under a pile of hay near the Cimarron. Mrs. Watson had her child clutched to her breast, in which position both met death. Scores of organized searching parties are at work, but progress is slow,- since tons of debris must be dug over in the search. It is believed the rushing waters of the Cimarron conoeal many corpses. The Cimarron is two miles north, and when the flood came the waters of the Cottonwood joined it. The Cimarron's bottom contain! Quick sand, and it is one of the most treacher ous streams in the country. It flows into the Arkansas in Pawnee county, and it is believed several bodies, if not buried in the sand, have been carried to the Arkansas, which is also very high, THE PRESIDENT ASSENTS.

The oldest national flag in the world is that of Denmark, which has been in use since the year 1219. Malarial Fever. This disease also called fever and ague Is best described as a periodical lever. Its chief characteristic Is not so much the nature of the single at tacks as the peculiar manner of thstr repetition. The two principal types of malaria are Intermittent fever, and remittent fever. The Intermittent type Is characterized by recurring attacks, la which, as a rule, chill, fever and sweating follow each other In orderly sequence. One generally knows a few hours beforehand, by unpleasant sen sations, and sometimes by headache, that a chill Is approaching. The entlrti duration of an attack Is usually from twelve to fifteen hours. The periodicity of the attacks is most striking; they occur with regularity at the end of twenty-four, forty-eight or seventy-two hours. During the Inter vening period the patient feels pretty well, and except In unusually severe cases Is able, to be about. The remit tent type of the disease has no distinct Intermissions of the fever; the temper ature Ik constantly above the normal, though marked remissions occur. Malaria Is caused by the presence In the blood of a parasite, s minute or ganism which can be seen only by the aid of a microscope. The natural his tory of this parasite Is not known; noi do we know how the organism enters, or how or In what form It leaves the human body. .It Is known, however, that these organisms are always pres ent In the blood of a person suffering from malaria, and that they disappear with the disappearance of the symp toms, or with the administration of quinine. Low, marshy regions, with abundant vegetation, badly drained low-lying districts, old river courses, tracts of land which are rich In vee table matter, and particularly dis tricts which have been allowed to fall out of cultivation, are favorite locali ties for the development of the ma larial poison. , In regions where malaria constantly prevails. It occurs most frequently lu spring and autumn; In temperate re gions It Is at Ita worst In September and October. Wherever It prevails the drinking water should be boiled, and unnecessary exposure to the night air should be avoided. Youth's Coinpau Ion. ' ' Wives Sold at Auction. There Is a town on Vancouver Isl and overlooking the Pacific Ocean that is lu need of 3,000 women. The town Is a cheerful place In Its general as pect. Its streets are well paved, and the climate and surroundings com bine to maks it attractive. But there Is s shortage of women and young girls In this locality that begets ah air of melancholy In the bearing of the superfluous male Inhabitants. The Mayor of this town Is a resource ful man. Finding that It was Impos sible to relieve the gloom that had settled over his bailiwick without for eign aid, he raised a fund to Import a carload of marriageable women from the East A hundred young women comprised the first consignment to this center of high-pressure bachelorhood. The town received the , newcomers with open arms. A reception followed by a "bargain sale" sf wives acted like a tonic on the despairing community. Men who had begun to fear that a long Journey must precede the chance to wed found'" a "honeymoon" Within their reach. The bidding was spirit ed. In some Instances ereat bargains were obtained,-a forlorn bachelor ob taining- a better half at actually panic prices. , . One man had a life partner knocked down to him before he had been Introduced to her. There was not a large amount of money Involved In this curious sale. A girl who owned $50 was rich enough to Indulge In the luxury of spinster- hood If she so desired. A man with $iuo to spend at the auction was In a position to make his own choice prac tically. Beauty was at a premium, and frequently caused very lively com petition. On the whole, the experi ment was a great success, and the town has taken on an air of gayety that it sadly needed. The number of wed dings since the auction has been suffi ciently great to encourage the town In the effort to obtain another carload of spinsters from the East New York World. Disconraged and Downcast. A Well Known Yolo County, Callfor. la, Druggist, Pines for the Nirvana. Be Finds a More Pleasant Rem edy for His Ills Than Bud dha's Panacea. From the Mall, Woodland, Cal. There is probably no man in Yolo county better known that William R. Pond, formerly of the drug firm ol Pond & Lawson, of Woodland, Cal. For five years Mr. Pond Was a terrible sufferer from nervous prostration, and at and during these attacks, pined for "sleep that knows no waking." . Physicians, were powerless to aid him, and he was becoming rapidly worn out, when an old friend, a Mr. Hendrickson, of San Francisco, recommended him to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills. In muoh the same way that a drowning man grasps at whatever comes his way, Mr. Pond clutched at the idea of Pink Pills, and they cured him, on his following the printed directions. ' Mr. Pond is chairman of the Republicaniounty cen tral committee, and is never tired of singing the praises of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills- contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood .and restore shattered nerves.

With a large cusli demand for wheat at all points, with stocks being reduced to a lower point than in years by the end of tho crop, and with prospects for an average crop of winter wheat very pour, it is enough to warrant the nmin tvtmnooe of proacnt values, and aUo the prevalence of good prices for wheat for the coining twelve months.. 'How high prices will go depends on three things speculation, crop prospects, and tho war. ' There will be a short crop of winter wheat for the third con sesutivo year The conditions are also uncertain for as largo ati acreage of spring as was exjiected earlier in the season, owing to the wet weather and the lutein's of the seeding in some sec tions, High prices, however, will stimulate farmers in tho Northwest to got in as large an. acreage as pos sible. There Iihh been a good deal of seeding, but in the Rod River valley, where a largo part of the crop is grown, there is too much water to admit of early seeding. Kansas gives good promise, but a change for the worse may come. The only tilings that can injure the crop are hot winds and sand storms. The outlook in California is uncertain. Reports say that Jiot winds have deteriorated tho crop. Latest re ports f tout France and Russia are against a large crop of winter wheat, but in the other foreign countries there is promise of about an t.'.erage yield. Stocks, how ever, are low, and consumers will go into tho now crop with less then the usual quantity. Greece and Turkey are not important factors as wheat growers, the former raising 4.800,000 bushels, and the lat ter 24,000,000 bushels. Bulgaria, Ser via, Houinaniu, and Montenegro raise 125,000,000 bushels. A liberal proper tion of their crop is exported to the continent. If Greeoe has a navy of sufficient strength to prevent a free ex port movement of wheat from these countries, it might'mako a great differ ence in tho supplies of the continent. Market Quotations.
